Lucas Pollet

@BrandonRahbar My completely uninformed take is that letting him play in Game 6 was the team letting him get on the court to know he wasn't ready so he wouldn't have years of "what if" down the line. They needed a spark, gave him the chance, and then knew he wasn't 100%.

Jalen Williams is out tomorrow for Game 7. Ajay Mitchell remains out.

@DownToDunk When are we actually going to actually talk about how bad the officiating is? Just about every game has had a clear bias in the physicality allowed by the Spurs. Did the Thunder play bad? Obviously. But it's hard to play aggressive when the other team is allowed to tackle you.

Send TQs for the FriPod Thx

@DParkOK The Spurs get marginal contact calls for things that are flagrant against the Thunder. Shai gets half the calls he should, because the refs just let them continue to foul. If Dort took a running start and lowered a shoulder he would be ejected instead of a common foul.

@DParkOK OKC played terribly tonight. I don't think anyone will disagree with that. However, at some point there has to actually be a convo about how truly terrible this officiating has been. There has been a clear imbalance in the level of physicality allowed for the Spurs.

I think the Thunder's even-keeled mindset has helped them through a ton of games over the last few seasons, directly helped them to win a championship. But they've largely been unable to match intensity and desperation in these closeout games, Game 7, incoming.

@Rylan_Stiles Comes down to 3pt shooting and the fact that the refs are just allowing attempted murder on the hardwood.

Thunder trail 60-53 at intermission. Comes down to 3-point shooting, Spurs with 11 (44%) makes to OKC's 6 (33%).

@BrandonRahbar If Dort does that exact same thing, he is ejected no question. Just unbelievable.

Common foul. No flagrant on Bryant. Okay.

@BrandonRahbar Actually just pull the team so the Spurs don't injure someone. Just waiting for Wemby to call in the kill shot on somebody. The refs are clearly not going to do anything.

@CAlmanza1007 Both wind up and excessive. How the hell are the refs this biased?

Referee announces Carter Bryant's foul remains a common foul

@JoelXLorenzi Can't miss with 8 players on the floor. It is incredible how unevenly this game is being called.

Wemby has four 3s, Devin Vassell looks like Boston Ray Allen, Carter Bryant just seemed to bend the rim on a baseline dunk — I'm really not sure how OKC has found enough responses to be in range. San Antonio cannot miss.

@BoomtownHoops Fucking idiotic. How the fuck is this team the poster of "ethical hoops."

lol Spurs absolutely not playing basketball the last few possessions. What on earth.

@AndrewKSchlecht I'm shocked there hasn't been some kind of comments from the league on this and the Biyombo "block." The block was at least a basketball play with excessive follow-through. There is no argument that the Plumlee tackle was anything but an attempt to hurt McCain.

Looking back at this today This is a wild and dirty play by Plumlee. Not sure what the goal would be outside of trying to hurt McCain

@BoomtownHoops Should have known it was a loss as soon as I saw Scott Foster. It's disgusting that the @NBA is that predictable but here we are shooting a quarter of the free throws of the Spurs.

Castle having 0 fouls is LAUGHABLE.

@BoomtownHoops @The_Uncontested I have tried to make this point to so many people. It is 't a coincidence that SGA falls so much but has been so incredibly durable over his career. Going to a controlled fall instead of moving weird to stay upright protects the ankles and knees.

@The_Uncontested And actually a great example of how Shai falling can help prevent injury. Good looking out, John.

Guy posts clip of the most textbook landing area foul. Like they might put this in the rulebook as an example of a defensive foul.

@Money23Green @HanaHoops I'd love to never see Draymond on TV again, if @espn @ABC @Disney need an excuse to cut ties.

@HanaHoops Watch your mouth before I crush those dirty ass kids in your banner.

COME OUTSIDE BITCH @Money23Green

@AndrewKSchlecht This is really great basketball being ruined be absolutely terrible officiating.

Shout out to Daigneault for demanding that away from the play foul Need every point you can get

@BrandonRahbar Worst officiated series in a decade.

Shocked that was called a flagrant foul. And somehow Vassell and Mitchell had offsetting techs.

@Maestraeux @AndrewKSchlecht I'm not a conspiracy guy. The way this series has been officiated makes it real hard not to think Silver is trying to turn it into the WWE and telling the refs to do anything they can to get Wemby to the finals in MSG.

@Lpollet @AndrewKSchlecht Genuinely not even enjoying watching this playoffs lol any series

Flagrant on Mitchell Vassell and Mitchell have offsetting techs

@CAlmanza1007 His left elbow has been getting progressively more taped since he went out for the bursitis earlier this year.

@CAlmanza1007 Really starting to feeling like he's nursing an injury that the thunder are keeping quiet about. That's the only thing that makes sense with how much he has just disappeared this post season.

All things considered, Thunder in a good spot. Somehow in the lead. All despite SGA only having 5 points on 2-of-6 shooting
